In megaregions, the movement is projected from the "root" region in the 
SW corner to the other regions. So, you'll have no border crossing lag 
because you really never cross the border. Your agent remains inside the 
root region. So, they are very good for playing with vehicles.

Things on a parcel level won't work except in the root region (media, 
land ownership, etc.). So, they're not good for splitting up into 
parcels. Also, you can only connect them to other regions at the root 
region. Entering the megaregion from one of the others is not a pleasant 
experience. I don't remember if landscaping works in not-root regions.
